The community club building of ‘Society Hill’ Residences is located at the heart of the residential area, adjacent the main gates of both construction stages.

Its reduced, cubic architecture is relatively closed towards the street, yet opens up towards the interior of the site, spanning the full height of the building and offering an unobstructed view to the main community plaza with its water cascade, behind which the Orchard Park as the community’s main landscape feature begins.
